Do you see the challenge number? #53!! That means that this challenge blog is now in it's second year. Wow it really does not feel like I have been doing this for a whole year. I have learnt so much - and discovered so many new people to work with - come across loads of incredable talented digi artists - and developed a whole bunch of new techniques. I have a cutie puppy from Meljen's Designs - you know how I am soppy over anyting doggie!

I love useing this patchwork paper laying look. You rummage about in the scraps box and pull out loads of bits that go well together and just pile 'em up. The background does have a snowflake star pattern - so it does count ;-)
